Overview

NCI Definition [1]:
An orally available inhibitor of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon oral administration, LTT462 binds to and inhibits ERK, thereby preventing the activation of ERK-mediated signal transduction pathways. This results in the inhibition of ERK-dependent tumor cell proliferation and survival. The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/ERK pathway is upregulated in numerous tumor cell types and plays a key role in tumor cell proliferation, differentiation and survival.

Ltt462 has been investigated in 4 clinical trials, of which 4 are open and 0 are closed. Of the trials investigating ltt462, 2 are phase 1 (2 open), 1 is phase 1/phase 2 (1 open), and 1 is phase 2 (1 open).

BRAF Codon 600 Missense, NRAS Mutation, and BRAF Mutation are the most frequent biomarker inclusion criteria for ltt462 clinical trials.

Cutaneous melanoma, colorectal carcinoma, and myelofibrosis are the most common diseases being investigated in ltt462 clinical trials [2].
